let him come
| Morphological Notes | Verb; aorist tense (simple/completed action), active voice, imperative mood, third person singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The aorist imperative calls for a decisive act of movement, and the third-person singular imperative is best rendered in English as "let him come." The rendering preserves the core root sense of movement toward or into presence without adding contextual direction. |
